John Lennon photography books are hardly a rare thing, he is the most photographed member of the most photographed band in history. However there have never been pictures of him like these; Instamatic Karma: Photographs of John Lennon; taken by May Pang his Girlfriend from 1973 to 1975, these photos are a rare thing. Lennon said himself that these pictures captured him like none others.

Things I have learned in my life so far is an amazing book by Stefan Sagmeister. He transforms proverbs into typographic works accompanied by essays from design historian Steven Heller, Guggenheim chief curator Nancy Spector, and UK psychologist Daniel Nettle, revealed as a complex blend of personal revelation, art, and design–an eclectic mix of visual audacity and sound advice. The book consists of 15 unbound signatures in a laser-cut slipcase. Shuffling the sequence of the signatures will produce 15 different covers.
